It's the least exciting release WNW have made since the DFW C.V

 

I can understand those who missed the Fokker boat the first time being excited, as it means they don't need to pay $185 on Ebay for a Fokker D.VII.

 

The moral of the story - if you see a WNW kit you want, buy the bloody thing as soon as humanly possible. It'll hold it's value better than any other kit you care to mention &, if it sells out will actually make a profit. 

 

That's my excuse. With interest rates at rock-bottom, gilts yielding next to nothing & world-wide trade war around the corner, all my money is going into WNW plastic.

 

Nearly all of their kits took over two years to sell out - the exception being the Hansa-Brandenburg W.29. As a monoplane floatplane with very minimal rigging, it was snapped up quicker than you can say "stuff this bloody rigging, where's my Bf109 kit!?".

That assumes that all D.VIIs are the same. They are not. 

 

I was mildly disappointed that there was no 'Early' boxing in the first round because of the unique camo and markings they carried. But, did get 2 of the D.VII F kits since they were the apex hotrods of the line. And, I'll get a couple of these new 'Early' kits just to build one in the markings on the box art.

 

If and when their distribution ever gets sorted out, that is...
